Regal Style by Bruin Fisher Her Majesty in regal style Dressed in blue with woolly vest Waves and nods her perma-smile Doing again what she does best. The carriage, gilt, with footmen, green Moves slowly through St James' Park. Roofless, so she can be seen Unless of course it gets too dark. With her, in state, her husband sits His smile less sure, less warm, less real. His place as consort is the pits, See his pallid grin congeal. The crowd, as ever, wave their flag Delighted with their glimpse of glove Held up, just so, to match the bag She clutches in her lap with love. At last the carriage slows and stops, By Marks and Sparks and Safeway too. He follows her around the shops. Poor Ma'am, she's not like me or you! ---

Dearest Des, This is the poetry forum!

Blimey! Much as I appreciate the sentiment, chaps, please desist. It's a poem, not a plea to be lauded. I haven't shuffled off my mortal coil yet. Camy ps love ya both!

Adieu by Camy If there is a point to all of this it's slipped me by We're born, sleep a lot, make love, wither, die Lessons we learn, trials we suffer through Covered with sod or burnt, it is adieu I strive to make a difference, yearn to carve my mark Battle genetics daily to change apathy to spark Yet if there is a point I'm afraid I don't see it now Prithee tell me, I will be remembered how? ---

Commiserations.

I'm all for siestas: a wonderful invention. I'm fond of 'Manana, manana hasta manana', too. Both are excellent strings to the bow of relaxed living ... I wish.

What didn't I get?

erm ... surely this isn't Matt? Silly me - no glockenspiel.

It's obvious. The only way to stop this 'is he or isn't he a drama queen' question from becoming contentious and possibly very ugly is to publish the next chapter (or two or three) IMMEDIATELY - if not sooner. That has my vote

For someone who doesn't 'do' poetry you 'do' poetry rather well. The first I like a lot, the second (a fairy tale?) made me laugh. Camy

Cheers. I needed a good laugh. :)

Why, Des? I certainly didn't get that impression. Good chapter, Cole! Camy

The way people interact with computers is going to dramatically change in the next five years, Microsoft chief Bill Gates has told BBC News. He predicted that the keyboard and mouse would gradually give way to more intuitive and natural technologies. Watch the interview Read the BBC article The new 'surface' looks amazing!

Spam III by Camy Euphemistically speaking my member's a phallus or is it the other way around? Then frankly, quite honestly I don't give a damn Provided he amazes and astounds I've known a Pecker, a Pete - seen a Putz And my friend Little John has a Ron But naming my chap isn't top of the list As I'm in training for 'The World's Biggest Dong!' We met on the net my trainer and I When I clicked on a lewd and rude spam He seemed quite upset that I wasn't fourteen But a grown man of thirty called Bam I'm sure to win - my trainer told me so Though I questioned the envelope of cash When I met him in the men's room at the station I was worried I might get a rash He suggested he hold my wallet Whilst I stripped for publicity stills More fool him I thought gleely As I pretended I was a policeman called Bill Clutching his chest he fell over It was really quite poignant at the last As I had his spam emails safely in my bag And didn't get to shove them up his arse

If you're still ill get better soonest. But here's hoping you're better.CamyPS - did you get his number?

Thank you all, muchly! The amount of spam trying to sell me cream/pumps/pills/what-have-you has increased to an almost ludicrous degree over the last couple of months. A poem was the only sane way out.

*looks around the room - pulls out spray paint* Chapter 19 was waaay K COOL! *flaps off*

Spam II by Camy My penis is too small I'm told By those who must be psychic For though they've never seen 'my friend' They say he should be mighty He's a paltry thing - below average size Until you apply our special cream Then vastly enriched in volume and power His new size will make them all scream Hmm .... But who are you to impugn me so? To insinuate 'my friend' should be bigger? I've had no complaints - of that I'm damn sure Let me trash your emails with vigour Might I suggest your brains are small Smaller than the average shrew And if you send me any more spam My next response will upset you too For then I might suggest your mother Lay with the milkman's flea bitten dog And that your smile - cute you think it is Is more like the maw of a raddled old hog So please keep your spam away from me Let's end this unfortunate farce Or I'll track you down with printed missives And shove them far, far up your arse

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7163547.stm The browser that helped kick-start the commercial web is to cease development because of lack of users. Netscape Navigator, now owned by AOL, will no longer be supported after 1 February 2008, the company has said. In the mid-1990s the browser was used by more than 90% of the web population, but numbers have slipped to just 0.6%. In particular, the browser has faced competition from Microsoft's Internet Explorer (IE), which is now used by nearly 80% of all web users.

Yes, please continue posting them. Thanks, Dude. Camy

Happy New Year !
